I hope I don't get beat up to badly for espousing cell-phone use in the wilderness, but there might be a place and/or time for everything...
Anyways, I read about this neat little gadget - the Energizer Energi-2-Go a self-contained AA-battery powered Cellphone charger and decided to get one, after having a number of personal experiences where my cellphone battery has died out on longer trips or in very cold weather.
I have not deeply tested it other than to charge my cellphone several times and it did it within 25-30 minutes and there is still plenty of battery power left on the AA's (based on my battery meter). It is very light and easy to stick in the top pocket of my backpack.
I don't know if there is anything else on the market that is similar, but I find this to be a valuable device for anyone who wants to stay in touch with a cellphone - whether it is in the puckerbrush or or you end up stuck on a 2 hour conference call while awaiting a flight from an airport.
